INTRODUCTION

The Auto Charge 24/12 HO, Model 091-175, Battery Charger is a compact completely

automatic charger designed for installation on vehicles with a 24V and 12V battery. The

cables so that the battery is charged according to its requirements. An optional remote

display provides continuous indication of the charger output.

vibration normally encountered by vehicle mounted equipment. The unit operates com-
